"Factory farm" is just a term used by opponents of large-scale animal agriculture to refer to Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations or CAFO's. It's difficult to say what the average is, since it varies so much by the type of livestock produced there. An average poultry CAFO might be 300,000 birds, while an average cattle CAFO might be much fewer at 5,000 head.

∙ 12y agoThat really depends on the person who owns the farm. For most though, having over 100 acres to work with is considered a good size. Over 200 or 500 acres is even better.
ANSWER 2In India farmers own 4 acres to 10 acres. More than 10 with good yield due to fertile soil and availability of water you are rich farmer. Mechanization is barely seen so more than 20 acres is out of question. Electricity, water and such other basic facilities are not provided for farms. If facilities are ever provided because of dire need they get misappropriated by corrupt officials and politicians never reaching those for whom it was made. Suicide by farmers in India proves farm is not good, except for bare survival in poverty no matter the size of the farm.
